OMG, I just turned in my letter of resignation. I'm about to retire! [View all]

I'm shaking like a leaf. I've gotten up and gone to work every day for the last 46 years. Worked for everything I have. Frightened to not have a pay check coming on a regular basis.

I do have a monthly retirement check from IBM, where I worked for 30 years and an appointment with SS in a week. I'll be 67 in July, so am past full retirement age.
